Simplify Fifth Roots
1. **State the problem:** Simplify the expression $$\sqrt[5]{1215a^{5}b} + \sqrt[5]{3a^{5}b} - a\sqrt[5]{3b}$$.
2. **Rewrite each term using properties of radicals:** Because these are fifth roots, we can write $$\sqrt[5]{x} = x^{\frac{1}{5}}$$. Also, since $$a^{5}$$ is inside a fifth root, $$\sqrt[5]{a^{5}} = a$$.
3. **Simplify each radical:**
- For the first term:
$$\sqrt[5]{1215a^{5}b} = \sqrt[5]{1215} \cdot \sqrt[5]{a^{5}} \cdot \sqrt[5]{b} = \sqrt[5]{1215} \cdot a \cdot \sqrt[5]{b}$$
- For the second term:
$$\sqrt[5]{3a^{5}b} = \sqrt[5]{3} \cdot \sqrt[5]{a^{5}} \cdot \sqrt[5]{b} = \sqrt[5]{3} \cdot a \cdot \sqrt[5]{b}$$
- For the third term:
$$a \sqrt[5]{3b}$$ (already simplified).
4. **Calculate $$\sqrt[5]{1215}$$ and note that $$1215 = 3^{5} \times 5$$:**
$$1215 = 3^{5} \times 5$$
Therefore,
$$\sqrt[5]{1215} = \sqrt[5]{3^{5} \times 5} = 3 \cdot \sqrt[5]{5}$$.
5. **Substitute back and factor:**
$$\sqrt[5]{1215a^{5}b} = 3a \sqrt[5]{5b}$$
The second term is:
$$a \sqrt[5]{3b}$$
6. **Re-express the original expression:**
$$3a \sqrt[5]{5b} + a \sqrt[5]{3b} - a \sqrt[5]{3b}$$
7. **Combine like terms:**
Note that $$a \sqrt[5]{3b} - a \sqrt[5]{3b} = 0$$
8. **Final simplified expression:**
$$3a \sqrt[5]{5b}$$.
Thus, the simplified result is $$\boxed{3a \sqrt[5]{5b}}$$.
